After dinner, Luc and Izzorah enjoyed a light wine while they tore into massive slices of cheesecake topped with a thick sauce of fresh cherries in brandy.
“Oh, stars, that was good.” Izzorah put down his fork. “If my father hadn’t raised me to be polite, I swear I’d lick my plate. That was the best dessert ever.” He leaned back in his chair. “I probably ate way too much, but I was hungry.”
“Same here. No worry. I’m sure we’ll work it off.” Luc’s plate still held crumbles of crust from the cheesecake, along with a smear of cherries. “You know, since you and I are alone…” On impulse, he lifted the dessert plate and while holding Izzorah’s gaze, gave it a long, slow lick.
Izzorah giggled, biting his lip. He picked up his plate as well and gave it a quick pass with the tip of his tongue.
Luc stroked his tongue across the plate, taking his time, letting his gaze tell Izzorah how delicious it tasted — and felt.
Color rose in Izzorah’s cheeks. His lashes lowered. He performed a far more thorough lick. He gave Luc a slow, sultry smile and then gave an even longer, slower lick along the edge of the plate. The soft wet barbs on his tongue glistened in the light.
Stifling an oath, Luc struggled for composure. His lightheadedness had nothing to do with the surfeit of sugar.
